  |  A Comparative Study of Infant-Toddler Auditory & Communicative Behavioral Checklist and Korean Developmental Screening Test for Infants & Children

A Comparative Study of Infant-Toddler Auditory & Communicative Behavioral Checklist and Korean Developmental Screening Test for Infants & Children

IT-ACBC was developed to evaluate auditory and communicative behavior in typically developing Korean infants and toddlers and can be utilized for checking those behaviors briefly. The reliabilities were verified with 114 parents of the normally developing infants aged from 1~26 months in the previous study (Park & Kim, 2016). Twelve month groups were composed of 1~3, 4~5, 6~7, 8~9, 10~11, 12~13, 14~15, 16~17, 18~19, 20~21, 22~23, 24~26months following Korean Developmental Screening Test for infant & children (K-DST). This list is widely applied for evaluating developmental skills of various fields such as large muscle, small muscle, cognition, language, sociality and self-help (Eun, 2012). The objective of this study was to standardize IT-ACBC with more data and compare to general developmental levels of K-DST. The correlation between auditory and communicative behavioral ability and 6 general developmental skills with IT-ACBC and K-DST scores were obtained to identify their relationship. IT-ACBC were administered by 172 parents of the normally developing infants aged from 1~26 months. IT-ACBC and K-DST were administered by 53 parents of the normally developing infants aged from 1~26 months; 10 subjects at 4~5month group, 7 at 6~7, 3 at 8~9, 2 at 10~11, 5 at 12~13, 5 at 14~15, 2 at 16~17, 5 at 18~19, 1 at 20~21, 5 at 22~23, 8 at 24~26. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of IT-ACBC was 0.972 which indicated that the items were stable and appropriate to check the auditory and communicative behaviors. Total scores revealed statistical significance for developmental differences which indicated that the selected items reflected the developmental order properly. The score of the IT-ACBC was not correlated with any of 6 fields of K-DST. IT-ACBC can be useful to assess those who have problems in auditory and communicative behaviors independent of general development at the early stage.

  • Development and standardization of Infant-Toddler Auditory & Communicative Behavioral Checklist (IT-ACBC)
  • Suggesting criterion that can determine whether infants or toddlers belong to peer normal group
  • Finding out relationship between the development of auditory and communicative behavior with IT-ACBC and 6 general areas such as large muscle, small muscle, cognition, language, sociality and self-help with K-DST with the correlation analysis
